gollark: Yes, but there's a lot of data gathered which I think isn't something they need for that.
gollark: For example, companies can buy data someone collects and use it for price discrimination.
gollark: I mean, in *my* case, I find random giant companies having access to stuff like my browsing history creepy, which is a good reason to me. Other people might not think this. But there are other reasons.
gollark: Sure? It's a bit loosely defined but I guess so.
gollark: Also, there aren't "objective reason"s to do anything. The most you can say objectively is that "X is good/problematic because it satisfies/goes against Y goal", or maybe "I consider Y goal/X thing important".
